The wellness industry is growing rapidly, yet for many wellness providers and clients, navigating the space feels overwhelming. Lavinia Roma, Founder & CEO of Wellmatch, knows this challenge firsthand. As an AfN-certified Nutrition and Weight Management Advisor, Lavinia has spent years helping clients achieve their health goals. But her journey in wellness wasn’t always smooth—she experienced the frustration of growing a practice, the struggle of finding clients, and the endless administrative tasks that took time away from actually helping people.
Determined to fix these issues, Lavinia leveraged her extensive experience in FinTech and HealthTech program management to create something truly transformative: Wellmatch. More than just a platform, Wellmatch is a movement—a place where wellness professionals can thrive, clients can connect with the right experts, and the entire industry can become more transparent and accessible. Lavinia’s vision is to remove the guesswork, the inefficiencies, and the excessive fees that hinder both providers and clients from fully benefiting from the wellness industry.
With Wellmatch, wellness professionals no longer have to rely solely on word-of-mouth marketing or struggle with appointment scheduling and late payments. Instead, they have a powerful, intuitive tool that allows them to showcase their expertise, attract the right clients, and manage their business effortlessly. Meanwhile, clients now have a trusted, easy-to-use platform where they can find the right wellness professionals, compare services transparently, and book sessions without hassle.
For Lavinia, this isn’t just about technology—it’s about reshaping the future of wellness and empowering individuals to take control of their health with confidence. Wellmatch is more than an app; it’s a game-changer for an industry that desperately needs innovation and accessibility.
